LIGHTNING SEEDS

- Perfect Lyrics

See the rivers filled with rain
I wish it could be blue again
Hazy petrol nights
Crimson sun on traffic lights
A perfect day a perfect night
Tell me all those perfect lies
And lie back in the garden till it's light
Streets get full up every night
With people buzzing round the lights
And waving at the taxis driving by
Now tomorrow's here today
And yesterday's todays just fade away
Watch the morning chase the night
Rolling home, it's getting light
Feeling sleepy, full of wine
Fall in bed, just in time
The perfect stare of perfect eyes
That kiss you as they tell you lies
And wonder where you're going, where've you been
In towers high with time to fill
Gardens on your window sill
In between the pavement and the sky
Now tomorrow's here today
And yesterday's todays just fade away
Tell me why all the words will never come out right
Fumbling blind, I've been driving through the danger signs
A perfect day a perfect night
Tell me all those perfect lies
And lie back in the garden till it's light
Perfect silence me and you
It's really me, I really do
Remember every moment magnified
Now tomorrow's here today
And yesterday's todays just fade away
Tell me why all the words will never come out right
Fumbling blind, I've been driving through the danger signs

What is the meaning behind Perfect lyrics?


When we think about the meaning behind each verse, the song 'Perfect' by The Lightning Seeds contemplates the very quick passing of time as well as the ultimate goal of perfection in love, and for that it uses metaphors such as 'perfect day' and 'perfect night' to show us both the transient beauty and the complexity of one's feelings. The lyrics of Perfect mainly point out the issues of time, love, nostalgia, heartbreak and angst through a reflective manner. On the other hand, the song makes music out of the idea of the necessity of imperfection and disillusionment, the transience of time, the urban life and nightlife. The lyrics hint at an escapist lifestyle, possibly through drug use, and to lying and deceit, which are definitely of a mature nature. Moreover, warily pointing out 'full of wine' means drinking, which is a contributing factor to the song's PG-13 rating.
